Introductions
Goals are an effective tool for all students regardless of background, SES status, etc.
Students should know what they will learn, and when they will learn it.
It’s all about the kids – its our responsibility to make sure they are learning. This is the top priority.

Goals
It’s important to set high goals and standards, and to have a clear plan to accomplish them.
Are you pushing your students to reach their potential, or are you preventing them from making maximum progress?
Higher levels of music require more advanced skills.

Goals
The key to success is steady progress for three years.Students should learn more and improve
every day they are in your room.All students, not just the “best,” should make
progress.The teacher needs to know what each
student should be able to do, and whether or not they can do it.○ Teach individuals, not classes.
